Coverage in the Gulf of Mexico?

Coverage in the Gulf of Mexico?

Is the Gulf of Mexico considered international roaming? My husbands phone keeps getting roaming charges for calls when he is offshore and it is less than 200 miles out, which is what the fcc recognizes as "intermational waters". What plan would avoid the roaming charges?

There is no way to stop the charges, however you can add on the Mexico roaming feature and reduce the roaming charges incurred, here are the numbers to call.
